| The convergence of isochromatic lines demonstrates the loss of a fundamental mechanism in dichromatic vision. |
|
| Photoelasticity has been used for various studies related to dental implants in view of whole field visualization of maximum shear stress in the form of isochromatic contours. |
|
| One can also easily identify the sharp edges of the anchors as the origin of the emerging isochromatic fringes and thus the source of the stress concentration. |
|
| Experimental measurements of full-field displacement contours and isochromatic fringe patterns are used to compare with the theoretical predictions and good agreements of both results are found. |
|
| Moreover, isochromatic fringes observed in photoelastic tests, display transfer stresses in the adherends ahead of the crack tip, which are found to be representative of the damage zone for each loading mode. |
